2019 Community Involvement Report
Sandia National Laboratories is committed to being an informed, compassionate and contributing neighbor in our local communities. This commitment has been demonstrated throughout Sandia's history, and is an enduring part of our future. New Mexico faces many challenges, including one of the highest childhood poverty rates in the United States and one of the lowest educational proficiency rates. Lack of affordable housing and insufficient educational achievement are issues in the Bay Area near our Livermore site. To address the greatest challenges faced in Sandia's communities of Albuquerque, NM, and Livermore, CA, and other remote sites, Sandia's contributions leverage resources in three critical focus areas. In 2019, National Technology and Engineering Solutions of Sandia, contributed $1.4M to our local communities, including $151K in the Livermore area.
